Did you know that the 2010 Census is already underway? Census workers and local officials have been working to update addresses and maps from the previous census. We want to make sure that every address is accounted for.
Census data determine the number of seats each state will have in the U.S. House of Representatives and also impacts the amount of federal funds we receive for local programs. Every year, the federal government distributes more than $400 billion to local, state and tribal governments based on census data.
In March 2010 more than 130 million
addresses throughout the nation will receive a census
form, either by mail or in person from
a census worker. Please fill out your census form promptly.
